The stars say it all but Judi Coey is such a great Optometrist, she creates glasses for the exact purpose I need them for and the staff really listen and help you to choose the kind of frames you want too. Good prices and I think they use Australian lenses? Would recommend to anyone!

Judi is so professional, keeps you well informed as she goes about her business while being super friendly - I recommend her to everyone. Rachel has to be the nicest, friendliest and most welcoming office manager I have ever experienced who leaves you feeling you are a friend more than just a customer. She is such a joy to know. I will definitely be referring friends and family to visit Judi Coey Optomery. Brett Gillis

Report
Unfortunately Judi was unable to meet my needs or address my main concerns adequately; although she rechecked her prescription for me I had to go elsewhere and get a correct prescription. Just one of the problems was that she failed to position where my line of vision was correctly on the lens. It was very out when rechecked - so much so that the optometrist remarked that it would have been difficult to see without constantly adjusting my head. So not a good all round experience.
